Let us with a gladsome mind

Monkland – J.Antes (1790)

Let us, with a gladsome mind,
praise the Lord, for He is kind:
for His mercies aye endure,
ever faithful ever sure.

Let us blaze His Name abroad,
for of gods He is the God;
for His mercies aye endure,
ever faithful ever sure.

He, with all-commanding might,
filled the new-made world with light;
for His mercies aye endure,
ever faithful ever sure.

He the golden tressed sun
caused each day his course to run:
for His mercies aye endure,
ever faithful ever sure.

And the horned moon at night
‘mid her spangled sisters bright:
for His mercies aye endure,
ever faithful ever sure.

All things living He doth feed,
His full hand supplies their need:
for His mercies aye endure,
ever faithful ever sure.

Let us, with a gladsome mind,
praise the Lord, for He is kind:
for His mercies aye endure,
ever faithful ever sure.

John Milton (1623)
